    New Nitecore SRT3 is out, BAM!

    Has anyone done any measurements to see what the throw is on this light? I used to EDC a Sunwayman V11R but it is much too floody. I moved to a Nitecore EC1 and i LOVE the throw of this little light. I would keep the EC1 but i need a tailcap clicky light. Does anyone know how the beam would...

    Nitecore Explorer (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2) Round-up Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO+

    This is very interesting that the single red led can discharge the 16340 in almost 3 hours. Mine took 6 hours and the light shut itself off and the battery was still at 3.45v. Something is very weird about the EC1 quality control. JD

    Nitecore Explorer (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2) Round-up Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO+

    selfbuilt: after your red LED run on the EC1 did you happen to notice what the battery voltage was? Mine ran for alot longer than 2 hours (6 hours to be exact) and my battery voltage was at 3.45 volts. Any thoughts as to why the EC1 would have short LED runtimes compared to the rest of the...

    Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G)

    Re: Eagletac D25 Clicky Series Round-up Review (D25C, D25A2, D25LC2 - XM-L & XP-G) I thought the misreading of current with a DMM were only under heavy loads? JD

    Anybody else had problems with DealExtreme (DX)?

    I have seen this exact same email. I found out that the action that is required is for your replay to just say something along the lines of "yes i understand" JD

    Nitecore Explorer Series (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2)

    I tried a red led runtime test last night on an EC1 with a AW RCR123 battery. My current draw was measured at 60ma. The led stayed lit for 6 hours and then it shut off. My light was room temperature after this 6 hours. I removed the battery and it measured 3.45v. At this voltage i was...

    Nitecore Explorer Series (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2)

    I am in West Coast USA. I have already done the latter part of your request many times. I am using a AW RCR123. It reads 4.18 volts 1 hour after it is taken off of the charger. It will either flash 4 volts or 3.10 volts in the EC1. I have two different cells that do this exact same thing...

    Nitecore Explorer Series (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2)

    The Red LED draw on my EC1 is 60ma. This is on a RCR123 battery. I am going to do a led test tonight and see how long it lasts. I am not sure how the AA and CR123 versions relate as far as regulation of the red led, but this thread could get very interesting. I have only used my red led for...

    Olight X6 Marauder (6x XM-L, Rechargeable) Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO + more!

    We were led to believe that there was going to be some cloud bounce pics in this thread. Not 100% sure where we got that idea from ;) LOL Any pics of this yet? Thanks, JD

    Nitecore Explorer (EC1, EC2, EA1, EA2) Round-up Review: RUNTIMES, BEAMSHOTS, VIDEO+

    I agree with your statements 100% with the exception that i have the EC1. Aside from these shortcomings i really do like this light. It is now my EDC. JD

    What's the biggest and baddest LED flashlight that you have?

    I just snagged a Olight X6. Didn't need it, but you know how the want vs need argument goes. LOL I use it all the time right now because it's new. As the "newness" wears off, probably very little and ill be back to using my EDC the most. JD
